Eatman-Would have taken a 1st to land Cooks

[kskboys]

Just listening to Hangin' with the Boys. He says at 4.15 mark that it would have taken a first to land him.

Sound's very much like we were prepared to give this up.

I'm speechless!

Frickin' idiot morons. Trading 1sts for WR's has done nothing but burn us, but here we go once again w/ Jerry's obsession w/ WR's or CB's. It has never worked and never will.

 

[RomoIsGod]

You guys say the Jones look like idiots.

The team is 6-2 and the backup won 4 games.

They have a 2 headed monster at running back.

Most of this team was built their draft. They are hitting on their draft picks.

I'm sure they let Cooper go for a reason. Friction in the locker room, combine with him disappearing combined with his huge salary.

The team put up 49 points this past week. Most of any team in the NFL this year. The team is getting better by the week.

They aren't doing a bad job. Are they perfect? No, but no other GM or team is.

Oh, they look like morons. That has been established, as well as beat into the ground.

They are 6-2 and in the hunt.

 

[charron]

Bobby Belt just saying on 1053 the fan that he is hearing from certain ones at the Star, that Cowboys would have likely made it a conditional 3rd rounder, that could esculate into a 2nd rd. depending
upon Cooks availability and production.

That I can respect. They tried for a decent deal and it didn't happen. But since trades are off the table now they need to go get OBJ use the money that would have gone to cook for OBJ and make a run, with washington coming back too.

 

[maryquality]

No way I give up a 1st for Cooks!!! Glad they didn't do it!!

 

[Denim Chicken]

If true, just confirms this is one of the luckiest front offices

 

[blueblood70]

I believe both Cooper/Collins weren't salary cuts, it was more about their characters.

was little of BOTH all cuts made this offseason were a little of both., they got rid of alot of salry and many of thepayer swho have been insocisnsitent or unavalble in years leadig up to their noy being here. think about that list

Cooper -way oiverpaid for player who wasnt our leadig reciver last eyar, missed two games and has been inconsitent.
Gregory- many ssupensions and injuiry missed games add penaltyes at inopotune times. would have takn $$ to kep him.
Zurlien-made decent $$ was insoncsentent may have cost us a gme or 2.
Jawrin-new deal, never seen much of the field.
Cwill-insocsistyent far too many penatlys.
Collins same as gregory, just missign games and not living uop to his $
Ced wilson-too much money for his prodcution, let him walk
Turner-not needed

who am i missing? i know we arent truly missing any of them and at 6-2, we might be a better team now as far as depth goes and not really dropping off much atr those above repalcments. as much as fans wanted to call oiur Off season and FAs a hostroically bad one, that is not what actually happened.

add a draft id rate an A right now, well I learn not to listen to those types of fans, same one pitting Dak vs Rush, Pollard vs Zeke,..they have no clue, just live in the momenet and ramanble on about how they FEEL things are going so badly ie overreact.

getting the same feedback after the trade dealine, once again calling jerry stupiud..they will never learn they are just fans and let eh pros make the decsiosn and results will speak foer themselves AFTER the season fully plays out....

[RomoIsGod]

Got get OBJ and Suh.

 

[CouchCoach]

What GM in his right mind would give up a 1st for Cooks?

 

[RomoIsGod]

They did good to not give up a 1. They tried with a 3rd

 

[RomoIsGod]

Plus, they do well in the draft. Why give up draft picks when they are hitting in the draft.

 

[Stash]

You guys say the Jones look like idiots.

The team is 6-2 and the backup won 4 games.

And we all know exactly HOW that backup won 4 games. And so do you. And it was DESPITE the Joneses’ Cooper screwup, not BECAUSE of it.

They have a 2 headed monster at running back.

Really? How so?

Most of this team was built their draft. They are hitting on their draft picks.

McClay and the scouts are.

I'm sure they let Cooper go for a reason. Friction in the locker room, combine with him disappearing combined with his huge salary.

Because the fan in you is TELLING you to.

The team put up 49 points this past week. Most of any team in the NFL this year. The team is getting better by the week.

Let’s all hope so. If do, the Jones boys’ mistake will be lessened. And maybe it won’t cost us a championship run.

They aren't doing a bad job. Are they perfect? No, but no other GM or team is.

Praise when it’s deserved, ridicule when it’s deserved. The street runs BOTH WAYS.

 

[kskboys]

They are 6-2 and in the hunt.

Of course. But, they still look and act like morons.

See, you're thinking that a bit of reg season success removes 27 years of being morons? Wow.

 

[Stash]

They are 6-2 and in the hunt.

And this somehow ERASES any mistakes?

For you maybe.

You mean Kelvin Joseph and Trystan Hill?

 

[G2]

This is why Nick Eatman talks about football and doesn't handle trades for a profession.

 

[G2]

Plus, they do well in the draft. Why give up draft picks when they are hitting in the draft.

Sometimes. There's evidence to the contrary specifically in the 2nd round.

 

[RomoIsGod]

Of course. But, they still look and act like morons.

Cooper did not jive in that locker room. There was a reason they let him go.

 

[Bagman]

Eatman said he thinks it would have taken a first round pick. He had no inside information on whether that was true. He was just guessing.

Misleading thread.

Exactly. Im one of the worst Jones boys critics out there. Can't stand the idiots. But to manufacture anger based on a guess is unfair, even for those billionaire boobs
